The file systems supported by Windows XP and Windows Vista are essentially the same.

If you have access to a XP computer, you can copy C:\ESRI and paste it in a folder on Windows 7 with the same name. Copy the files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\ESRI from you XP computer to the folder C:Program Files (x64)\Common Files\ESRI on your Windows 7 machine. After you have to copy the ESRI font and install it on Windows 7. If this doesn't work, there is a second option which can be read at gislounge.

I am not able to view my Boot loader screen today after I installed Windows Xp Sp3 in another partition Earlier I could select either Windows Xp-sp2 Windows 7-32bit or Windows 7-64bit?
I had the exact same problem with my own computer. Apparently, Windows 7 doesn't work that well with Windows XP's boot loader (when dual booting). I solved the problem (well...sort of) by booting into my Windows 7 partition, Installing EasyBCD (http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1) and adding Windows XP to the boot loader again. The only thing is that when ever I boot into Xp (which is rare now) and then shut down, the Windows 7 boot loader is erased an I have to recover the computer with the Install DVD.The Windows Boot Loader begin erased may or may not happen to you, but it mayBest of luck with it,~Dex1010

Dual booting ubuntu 10 04 and windows 7 In wine 1 1 42 when browsing to program files only common files and internet explorer folders show No others Any ideas as to where they are or how to find them?
What you are seeing in wine is not the windows files from your windows 7 installation, but windows files that the wine "emulation" package. Your windows 7 files are somewhere else. I'm a Fedora user, so not sure about Ubuntu, but try browsing to /media and see if you can see your windows 7 drive there.
